Plenty of games do. Arma 3 is up there for instance and it's a pretty demanding game. Also poorly optimized but still demanding. Running console games at higher settings is also pretty demanding, on top of also being poorly optimized generally.

By that logic consoles are completely retarded as well, because most calculating machines will never be used to play games, so what idiot buys one dedicated to gaming.

Or maybe it is not important what most of all possible machines do? Maybe you are an idiot, stupid to the degree of the above argument and very much your own?

>64% of all steam users play at 1080p or higher resolution
You seem to be misinterpreting that statistic. I'm not sure if you're adding the multi-monitor listing to the single monitor listing or something or something else, but that's inaccurate. The primary display resolution statistic do count for multi monitor set ups as well as single monitor set ups, judging by values like "5760x1080" and other significant wide resolutions.

Adding up to the total for all higher values than 1080p listed, it comes to 3.51%.

So

- 61.28% of Steam users play at below 1080p.
- 35.21% of Steam users play at 1080p.
- 3.51% of Steam users play at above 1080p.

I think mustards forget that the majority of PS4 owners don't have good PC's and play primarily on the console which in that case has...more than one game, shocker I know.
If you have a PS4 and essentially no PC you don't just sit around playing BB, you can play all the multiplats as well.

See, the problem with using "most people" to insult me is that the existence of idiots doesnt prove me an idiot.
Just because game X runs like shit for person Y, doesnt mean it runs like shit for me.
However, if a game runs like shit for one Playstation owner, it will run like shit for all of them. Thats a position i could take, but you cant. So stop making these threads.
